That is a lie. Harry is the Majority Leader. There is a special rule that if the majority leader votes "yes" and the bill is defeated, its GONE, but if he votes "No" and its defeated, it can be brought back again at a later time. Harry Reid has only voted no on bills (even if they were his own) whi...

Harry Reid has voted against his own bills repeatedly, under exactly the same circumstance. It's amazing that liberals,especiallya Senator in leadership like Durbin either doesn't know that, or lies. Of course Democrats lap this crap up without knowing or caring about the truth. That is a lie. Ha...

Senate Majority Whip Dick Durbin (D-IL) scoffed at that notion that a senator would ask for a vote on a bill in good faith while requiring that it be “filibuster-proof.” “This may be a moment in Senate history, when a senator made a proposal that, when given an opportunity for a vote on that propos...

Using ANY logic the patrons pay for those accomodations. Only the very ILLOGICAL would ever assume otherwise. Of COURSE patrons pay the costs of doing business - and a little something on top, called profits. And we have agreed, as a society, to foot that bill. We are family, son. And we have decide...

Using your logic it would be acceptable for the business owner to require the patron or employee to cover the costs of "reasonable" accomodations. Because sometimes, reasonable is in the eye of the beholder, that being the government bureaucrat who has no skin in the game. Now most people would jus...

I think you are quite wrong, here. When a family decides that grandpa gets special consideration due to advanced age, there could be one refusenik - someone like you - who wants to let grandpa die taking the stairs. But he's over-ruled, and the family majority view holds. The decision has the force ...

But my stuttering does. Somebody's smoking a feel-good, politically correct crack pipe. I stutter. I deal with it.I thin...
